![]() ![]() Withthe old holders, undersize coins had more friction points (becuase the gasket went all the way around), and there was much less movement. A coin struck under less pressure than usual (very common on 20th century coins) will be slightly thicker and also smaller in diameter than what the standard 25C gasket allows for. On my Washington quarters, which only have 1 standard gasket size availabe, they cant do anything fix this problem. Unfortunately, I've had this problem on standard size, close-collar coins, as well. On the Bust halves I've gotten edgeviews on, a few of them rattled around, but they have multiple options of gasket sizes to choose from to get the right fit, and I simply sent them back to be re-done. Some also rattle around when you simply flip the slab over. I have had multiple coins now that are spinning around in the slab. Irritating prongs aside, some coins do not sit in the holders very well. I am a huge fan of them as well, however, there are serious flaws in it. I want to see the squared off edges, doggone it! What's the point of having a genuine proof buffalo nickel if I can't even see the attributes that confirm it as such? I just cataloged a 1936 satin proof buffalo in one of "those other" holders, and the confounded gooey rubbery insert gloops and globs over the edge of the coin just enough to obscure inspection of the rims, which I really enjoy when examining a proof buffalo. Honestly, if I were getting my collection certified, I would insist on the EdgeView for every coin, regardless of size. Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) said it will begin using its latest generation coin holder, featuring enhanced security features, on a wide-scale basis starting Wednesday. The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization this debate is so overplayed and meaningless. Speaking of it is now time to get out the screwdriver and write 'em up for submission to, well you know the rest………. Hey, this is pretty much a holder ahead of its time only recently have todays grading services gone to edge view holders. I guess with proof and mint state Indian cents fairly worthless in the early 20th century this was not a concern.įurther use of a knife is suggested on one pin only or the coins would be to loose and you would need an entirely new holder. No mention is made of being careful to not damage the coins, however. Use a knife blade for a perfect fit, being careful not to mar the holder. Repair of the holder is discussed and encouraged if you happen to push too hard. Push till the coin fits snugly and tight, but not too hard. However, what we found most interesting was the Seitz Coin Case that the mint state and proof Indian cents were in enclosed in, or more specifically the pink slip with instructions on how to place your coins in the holder. Melvin Came from Dover NH, French’s of Jensen Beach fl, Barney Bluestone Syracuse, NY and others. Recently Northeast bought a copper collection that some interesting pedigrees on the inserts. With these crystal clear, durable holders, encapsulated NGC-certified collectibles are proudly displayed, showcasing every detail without the potential for scrapes or marks obstructing the view. ![]() ![]() Thanks! I don't believe I've seen one of these before. Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) is happy to announce the return of the Scratch-Resistant EdgeView Holder. Tom Caldwell of Northeast Numismatics submitted these notes and images about a Seitz Coin Case filled with Indian Head cents. ![]()
